What if your anxiety isn’t something to fix, but a message from your body that something needs to change? In this episode, Erin breaks down the most common hidden physiological roots of anxiety, from disrupted circadian rhythms and blood sugar imbalances, to hormonal shifts and neuroinflammation, all of which leave your body feeling stuck in overdrive!

You’ll learn how everyday habits like poor sleep, under-eating, and overexposure to artificial light can create biological stress that fuels anxious feelings. More importantly, Erin explains how to decode those signals, understand what your body’s really asking for, and reconnect the dots between your physical health and emotional wellbeing, so you feel calm and grounded again.
